Why can't I pick this lock??

  • This padlock has resisted my charms for too long. On paper I should be able to open it quickly. I decided to delve a little deeper and try a different approach to getting it picked and out of the naughty bucket!

    Never knew that. Only DD I have with a spinner is rear tensioning but i always thought it didn't matter too much.
    Thanks for sharing 👍

    Well done for figuring it out mate 👏 I noticed this when I was making the cutaways when I gutted them 😮

      @Dmaclocksport  7 месяцев назад +1

      The others I had front tensioned. This one has a slightly deeper cut on disc 1. I think that means that the spinner is rotated just too deep to let the sidebar in

    You definitely could have picked both the first disk and the gated spinner with the tensioning nose of the front tensioning pick but rear tension is always easier. Great job regardless. Now that you know, you may want to practice opening that lock with the front tensioner just for the practice in case you encounter the same thing in the future.

    • @Dmaclocksport
      @Dmaclocksport  6 месяцев назад +1

      I did have a try after filming this funnily enough. Tensioning off a zero cut, counter rotating the first disc until it sets, then pulling the tensioner out a bit to rotate the spinner. Not managed the open yet but I'll keep practising 😎👍🏻

    Cool! DD's are out of my league but I don't think I've seen a gated spinner in a video before! Nicely done!

    They are bit like the gerda rear tensioning locks, except the gerda’s have false gates & the spinner has two notches & are more difficult to pick,
    They can be picked with a front tensioner but it’s a bit of a faff so rear tension is the best & easiest way.

      Cheers Brett, I'll have to look out for one of those. Do you know the model number?

    Slowly absorbing DD information, thanks Dmac. Do you think you would have solved it if it wasn't guttable ?

      @@Dmaclocksport I suppose trial and error and just using the rear tensioning tool would have got it open but you may never have known quite why. What if the spacer discs had cuts for the sidebar the same as the spinner, would that work as anti picking measure?
